CHAPTER 1
Extra Commands:
Room2 offers some extra commands for the player to simplify creating some
standard actions that are performed in rooms.
These special commands are there at the moment - have to be defined with
#define EXTD_ROOM
READ_CMD - enables some items in the room to be read. The read
description can differ from the item description. The
readable item id's and item descriptions can be set using:
set_read( ({
"id1#id1a...", "desc1", "id2#id2a...", "desc2", ...
}) )
For more details see 'man room/set_read'.
Kiri says in 2016: I hope we can build something like this
without EXTD_ROOM soon ;-) In the Village Domain we have
features like this going beyond this ...
Kiri also says: And please no signposts/signs etc. saying
"perhaps you can read it" when you look at them! ;-) This
is really annoying! See also page 15 of this tutorial or
https://nemesis.de/lpc/doc/room2/page15 .
ENTER_CMD - enables entering of adjacent rooms not using the obvious
exits mechanism, but an enter command. Entering can be
even time-dependent. The enter IDs, rooms and time-
dependence can be set using:
set_enter( ({ "id1#id2...", "filename", <time-flag>, ... }) )
Time flag can be CLOSED, DAY_BARRED, NIGHT_BARRED and OPEN.
For more details see 'man room/set_enter'.
Obsolete:
SEACH_CMD - #define SEARCH_CMD is no longer supported and it is ignored:
obj/player has a universal search command now.
See 'man object/search' and 'help search'.
For other possibilities of "searching" see 'man room/produce'
(taking room items) and 'man room/do_dig' (digging).
Changed/modified/modernised by Kiri in February and August 2016.
